Anyone else having issues with their ear speaker on iPhone 13 since the latest 26.1 iOS update?? The minute I updated the software my ear speaker stopped working. When I answer a call, I don’t hear anything unless it is on speaker. I’ve seen this is an issue with many others in the past. Hope they fix this. I’ve noticed a lot of problems with the new iOS 26 updates. Smh.
iPhone 13, iOS 26
To rule out defective software, set it back to factory settings, set it up manually without the backup. Then test it the ear speaker again.
In case is it working, restore from the latest backup.
If not, get the iPhone diagnosed by Apple, which can also be done online.
